    On the same topic, I wonder if there are film/ protective products that can be installed on headlights to avoid or at least minimize the yellowing and fading that often happens over time. The trick would be how they would be able to handle the heat coming from the bulbs/ projectors, etc.

    Any ideas gents?

    I am not a fan of chrome . For me, the only car color that fits chrome is the metallic blue of the Toyota Altis.

    I and the wifey also dislike all those chrome trimmings and accessories they put on most cars nowadays.

    Sabi ni 'esmi, sana daw bumili na lang sila ng Sarao kung ganun din gusto nila.

    I hate to use the word "baduy" but it is what it is and anyway we're all entitled to our own opinions.

    Chrome is an Asian thing I noticed. But some overdo it. Chrome liners around the headlights & tail lights, chrome liners as door edge protectors..... the more, the merrier. I think it functions as a personalized thing so you can ID the car easier in a crowded parking lot?

    Not necessarily sir Bloo, when I visited my brother in Winnipeg 2 years ago I saw quite a few cars with chrome bling-blings so maybe it's not exclusive to Asians. Then again, it could be possible that the owners of the cars where of our race as well. LoL.

    The flat black accessories I don't mind so much, but those faux carbon fiber ones make me shake my head and smile wryly. Why try to claim it for something that it obviously is not, I wonder? Self-deception or just a lack of reliable information?
